So it turns out that 12 hour days in work are not conducive to having any time left to run, but that's OK today as following my first track session for ages yesterday, and being still technically in recovery from the marathon on Sunday, I think another notional rest day is probably pretty wise. I did still manage my usual cycle commute though and got back (just) in time to squeeze in a relaxing 25 minute swim this evening before getting home for dinner. I'll be quite honest though, it was the post swim jacuzzi and steam room that really chilled me out!

It did also occur to me that while yes, it was a 12 hour day, because I was busy, it went pretty quickly and that on Sunday, I will be attempting to run for 12 hours (Well. Run/walk... stay on my feet at least!) at TrailBlaster12. "Time is an illusion. Lunchtime, doubly so" according to Douglas Adams. We will have to see. It's certainly relative. Energy equals mass times the speed of light, squared, right? I think in my case it might equal flapjacks times the speed of mouse cubed. Which reminds me. I'd better go and buy some oats tomorrow and get this nutrition plan under way..!

Not much to make this a particularly interesting Juneathon post today, especially not in the visual stakes, but I did manage to hunt out and steal a couple more snaps of me and my pacing buddy from Sunday. Stat Geeks among you may also be interested in my current summary (for the last 4 weeks, not just June) courtesy of Garmin. Running and cycling only, they haven't worked out how to track yoga yet!
